Trump floats postponing general election

[Ridge]

So yesterday Trump made a tweet proposing delaying the general election from November 3rd, based on his claims of the risk of fraud from mail in voting.

Thoughts?

If he postpone, Carter might run for 2020.

No no no. Obama was the one who was going to install himself as president forever.

well the other line of thinking on this is. The D's wanted all mail in voting. Based on the "fact" everyone would be afraid to be in a line that close to people. Concerned about potential for catching the virus.
Then it was ok to either all mail in or rethink election day.


With all the protest i believe that D theory has shown to be untrue.


last item.
Does anyone believe if the election is postponed, all mail in, or held as normal. ANYONE is going to be happy with the results? The D's have been pushing an interference mantra since biden was the d candidate.

I don't think he's serious about it. He's pushing some buttons. It's Twitter fodder, which is why I didn't mention it.

The issue has been raised before. This is from April: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/ar...stitution-says

Trump has a history of this type of rope a dope tactic to distract the left by engaging their anti Trump derangement syndrome. I’ll go on record now as saying this would be disastrous and I would vehemently oppose it absent congressional approval, and then only if the transfer (or not) of power occurs on January 20th regardless of the actual election date. I fully support free and transparent elections, the rule of law, and the peaceful transition of power, even when I lose the vote.

We don't call him "Troll in Chief" for nothing

There was an editorial in the WSJ about this ... basically the Democrats have called every election they lost since at least 1968 "illegitimate" except for the couple of 49 state landslides.

here's a copy of the article (WSJ is paywalled): https://www.investorvillage.com/smbd...g&mid=20902656
